- How to plaster a plasterboard/drywall board wall - In this simple beginners guide, I show how to apply plaster/drywall stop bead, how to apply scrim tape, how to mix plaster, how to apply two coats of plaster, how to plaster an outside 45 degree corner, and how to polish and finish plaster. I also show how to plaster into small gaps using different tools. In my other video 'how to plaster a wall' I show how to plaster onto an old wall using PVA on the wall prior to plastering (see links below).

Mate we ran out of money doing the Appartment, so we ended up doing this stuff ourselves. So guys like you have being apsolutly amazing, thank very much!
Really glad the vids have helped you out. Good luck with the apartment and thanks for watching!
As a DIYer, I found this really helpful and you explain it in a way that makes it easy to follow. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback James. Really pleased the video helped. Good luck with your projects and thanks for watching!
I've got to say thanks. I followed your video the first time I plastered a wall about 3 years ago and got great results. Since then, I've always popped back for a refresher when ever I've been tasked with this daunting job, and always get the same great results. Either I'm a master plasterer and I just never found my calling, or more likely, your instruction is really on point and very clear. Thanks Pouse.
Glad the video was useful 👍
Hi, I'm a site plasterer.I personally think it's a good DIY video.It's clear & informative for most DIY enthusiasts to follow.Personally I always bed my beads with plaster which I'm using & on very large areas I'll staple the bead.Remember every1 is different, and people alter techniques so it works for them .I see people on site constantly with different techniques but obtaining the same goal.Again being different, that area could have been taped & jointed & probably easier for most DIYers to achieve a good finish,however it's a plastering video for DIY enthusiasts and everyone needs a starting point.
Hi Nicholas, thanks for the feedback. As you say it is intended as a beginners video not to showcase master plastering (which I couldn't anyway!).I think people often get het up on how plaster is applied, but there are different methods so each to their own I say. The important thing is that 2 good coats of plaster go on which will be durable and finished to the required standard. Good luck and thanks for watching!
This is one of the best videos yet for basic plastering, straight to the point. love it, thanks
Thanks for the feedback. A link to my plastering playlist is here if you want more - czcams.com/play/PL2-FHRIF3qm9ej6TMNeBO6mgAWv5aCB1F.html
Possibly my new fave channel. Top work mate. 👍🏾
Really appreciate your great feedback. Thanks for watching.
get that architrave off ffs
Not always possible on site when other trades have been in. Client would of had the chippies round first putting the frames in. Didn't want them to come back after so they put the architraves and skirting in. Nothing difficult for a decent plasterer to sort out. Better than the cowboys who go straight over the door frame with skim and leave you the task of knocking it off and pulling finished plaster off the walls after
Cant for the life of me work out why they do it!
I grew up in in a house with one-piece metal door frames that were held on with sliding brackets that nailed into the framing, so you had to plaster around them. The plastering was usually neat enough that they looked fine, but it tended to crack if you slammed the door. I think they stopped using frames like that (at least in the USA) in the 1960s.
Very clear instructions and steps and agree it is an art form. Thank you.
Excellent. Thank you for explaining the dark of art of plastering.
No problem, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your professional advice.
1st time plastering after seeing you video . Full walls came out spot on . Thanks again 👍🏼
My old man was the best plasterer ive ever come across, no longer around to ask his advice but everything you said and did on this was exactly how he used to do it. Spot on mate, thanks heaps.
Sorry to hear about your dad. Thanks for sharing your experience 👍
Thank you..... I plastered my own wall and ir looks fab xxx
Thank you for your time and help.
No problem, thanks for watching.
Excellent! I was scared off by the idea that it's easy to overwork the plaster... but by building up in layers... cool 😎
Nice one Matt. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for caring and sharing ❤️
For a DIYer like myself I find the videos on this channel brilliant. The presenter is easy to follow and makes it sound simple to do. This in turn makes something that might be daunting to something that is achievable.
Thank you very much for your kind words and thanks for watching.
My plasterer let me down, didnt bother answering my texts. So after watching the vids i gave it a go. Bit tricky to get used to at first but i did 4 walls in a day and have a really nice smooth finish. Doing the other wall and ceiling tomorrow. Saved myself £350 by doing it myself thanks to your video and happy ive done it myself and gained experience and it looks good
Marc, that's great news. 4 walls is really good going, nice work! Good luck with the rest of it and while you're arms are aching, just think of the money you're saving. Thanks for watching!
Good man!
Clear and concise. Thank you
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
excellent tutorial thank you. 50 years I worked in the construction industry and never managed to master plastering when it came to small repairs and making good. Now I know why ...!
Thanks for the feedback John and thanks for watching!
Excellent video, haven't plastered in years and could not remember the work flow of skimming.
Some of the newer videos seem to be professionals showing off, the ones I watched 5 years ago when I first skimmed a room seem to be far more clear.
The most inspirational one was the guy with his little girl bringing him tea between coats, alas no where to be found now.
Thanks for a good instructional video
I'll have to train my daughter to do the same! Thanks for watching and best of luck with the plastering.
Best video for plastering a wall.
Thanks for the feedback and good luck with the plastering!
This is the best explanation I've seen for complete beginners. Nice and clear and a logical progression . Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed the pace and style of the video. Good luck with the plastering and thanks or watching!
Excellent video mate; very clear, and you explain the techniques in detail especially the movements - brilliant.
Been struggling to find a plasterer to skim the bathroom, but now having watched this, I'm pretty confident I can give it a go! You make it look so easy
Best of luck with it Lee and thanks for watching.
Excellent demonstration. Thanks for sharing. I’m gonna make a start in the airing cupboard, see how that goes.

No problem. I am by know means an expert so always take a look at other channels to get a broad range of advice, but I will always do my best to simplify things for someone starting out. Thanks for the kind words Jim and thanks for watching.
@@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE Yep i have watched a lot of them..a lot of yanks calling it "mud"...thing is i have done enough plastering now to be good at it but my finish can be hit and miss..so go back to basics and ty and find out where in the process i'm going wrong...loading the towel too much...pissing about with the first coat too much and not mixing to the right consistency which is crucial are the culprits ...It really is an art and really satisfying when done to a nice finishl...your vids are to the point,so again cheers...I'm doing my house at the moment...Not near plymouth are you Pouse? i could do with a hand. 😂

Glad to help 👍
Excellent!!!!
Thanks for the feedback Wenderson!
A Welsh plasterer that actually works? I'm doing up a gaff in The 'Port but every plasterer was always' about to go on holiday ' so I gave up and am doing it myself. Your videos are the best- and I think I've watched them all, but the American woman' seejanedrill' explained the trowel movements and angles and hawk techniques the best. You do a better job explaining in this video than your others though. So huge thanks! It's been going really well and I finally have flat walls in the kitchen area. I'm dead chuffed and really enjoying it, not to mention saving a bomb, but I won't be giving up the day job yet. Had a tricky spot but the tongue and gurning tip saved the day!
Hi again, glad to hear the videos are helping you out. It's not my day job either but like you has saved me a lot of money over the years. When you say the port, you mean Newport? Good luck with the property, appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching. Good luck and keep it up!
POUSE around the HOUSE
Yeah, the Newport invasion begins! Goldie Looking Chain now owe me a fiver... 😉 Trading the New Forest for Brecon Beacons and Gower. And a house that's half the price of a beach hut down here.... Oh, and friendly neighbours. Not used to that one!
Thanks, going to be using your vids when I do my new house up!
Great stuff, best of luck with the house and thanks for watching!
Great video and great explanations. You've helped convince me that I can actually do this...
Hi Kent, that's great news, go for it. Good luck and thanks for watching!
Excellent. Thanks for all the details that many other video makers just assume we should know.
No problem Colin, glad the video helped. I always try to cover everything in my videos no matter how basic or advanced, although I sometimes forget. I always welcome a reminder from viewers if I leave something out! Best of luck with your project and thanks for watching!
Excellent videos. Really well done. Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoy the vids. Thanks for watching!
Excellent vid, I learnt a lot. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful.

First class video, well done.
Thanks for the feedback Michael, and thanks for watching!
Excellent 😊
Glad you enjoyed it.
Good job.
Nice Patterdale!!
It is a lovely dog, friendly and great at catching vermin! Thanks for watching!
don't be afraid people, I never did it before but my first attempt was great, just get thru the first hour, start in a corner no one will look at lol, it comes easy after an hour or so of skimming.:-)
Good work Matt, love your enthusiasm, top man! Thanks for watching and well done for having a go. Good luck!
love a video that's to the point, good info!!!
Glad you enjoyed!
